Why does the govt need to be involved in who we chose to be with? As long as they are all consenting adults, and there is no coerican, no viloence, and no kids involved, why should the govt have a say? Marriage is a relationship mostly involving two people. If other people want to have more than one man, or more than one woman it seems to me that it's none of our business, if we try to regulate how many is too many, we slide down that slippery slope. Unless it's a situation like these darn sex cults....  i do not buy the straight only idea. at the san francisco zoo, i saw a penguin couple who are both male. That's right, these two male penguins are happier with each other, and together keep their igloo just like a male and female couple do.

  can we ask the question of the government's right to
restrict consenting adults from group marriage? after
listening to that radio show i can see that some
people see nothing wrong with it as long as children
are not involved and do not think it is the
government's bussiness. 
  not my opinion, but and opinion help by at least
some people. 
  this question gets to the heart of the point i was
making.
